Patent EP-1500841-A3 (EP)
Inventor: ENGELS ALBRECHT DR
IPC: B22D19/00
Filed: 1997-10-23
Abstract: The method involves casting a support body from light metal alloy in a mould (1). The support body has an annular layer (11,12) of metal ceramic compound material on one or both sides, which has a friction surface for a brake caliper. The molten masses of the support body material and the layer material are cast one on the other in the mould on a time-delayed basis. The first cast molten mass, or at least its upper surface area, is hot enough on hardening to form a gradient structure in the transition area of the two materials. The first cast molten mass is cooled to a temperature between the casting temperature and 100[deg] C. The inlay is prefabricated from the material of the annular layer. The inlay is placed in the mould and is cast around by the molten mass of the support body material. At least the area of the inlay coming into contact with the molten mass of the support body material is heated so that a gradient structure is formed in the transition area of the materials.

widths of pulses; a random number sequence detector (622)
which receives the random-interval pulse sequence and
detects information regarding the start point of a random
number sequence, using the reference template pulse
sequence; and a comparator (623) which compares the pulse
sequences for the signal 0 and the signal 1, and
determines whether the value of the received random-interval
pulse sequence is 0 or 1. Accordingly, it is
possible to easily detect information regarding the start
point of a pulse sequence while maintaining a processing

Abstract: A microprocessor system includes a multi-bank memory having a first memory bank and a second memory bank, a muxing circuit, a CPU and a DMA controller. The muxing circuit allows the CPU to access one of the memory bank while allowing the DMA controller access to the other memory bank at the same time. Thus, the microprocessor system needs to process multiple data sets, the CPU can be processing a first data set in the first memory bank while the DMA controller is writing a second data set in the second memory bank. When the CPU is finished processing the first data set and the DMA controller is finished writing the second data set, the muxing circuit is reconfigured so that the CPU can process the second data set in the second memory bank and the DMA controller can write a third data set in the first memory bank.

Abstract: A long term rapid color changing time indicator includes a front part and a back part. The front part includes a transparent layer, an opaque layer, a colorant layer, and a neutralizing layer. The colorant layer includes a matrix and a colorant having a non-migratory form that does not migrate in the matrix and having a migratory form that migrates in the matrix. The back part has a reactant. When the front part and the back part are placed in contact, the reactant migrates into the neutralizing layer and a portion of the reactant is depleted by a coreactant. The unreacted reactant migrates into the colorant layer and reacts with the non-migratory form of the colorant converting the non-migratory form to the migratory form such that the migratory form of the colorant migrates through the opaque layer to cause a visual color indication in the transparent layer.

Abstract: A system and method for displaying still video images related to video content in an interactive broadcast television system. The system and method of the present invention may also be used for simulating an Internet home page on an interactive television system. The present invention thus supports hyperlinked web-like navigational capabilities in an interactive television system. According to the method of the present invention, the video delivery system provides or broadcasts one or more audio/video channels each comprising video content and also provides or broadcasts at least one still image channel comprising a plurality of still video images, preferably MPEG-2 compressed still images. The user or viewer can select options displayed on the television screen to view desired information. When the set top box receives user input selecting an option to view one of the linked still images, the set top box captures the requested image from the still image broadcast channel, stores the image in memory, and displays the captured still video image corresponding to the selection. The still image being displayed may have associated interactive program content for displaying further selections, wherein these selections may be for viewing other images or content, for ordering information, or purchasing products. The user can thus selectively navigate between the video content and stills in a web-like hyperlinked fashion. In one embodiment, when a user is navigating through still images, the television program or video content which was being viewed is displayed in a small window overlaid on the still image being displayed. Also, when the set top box captures a requested image from the still image broadcast channel, the set top box preferably also pre-caches or pre-loads other related still images based on the probability that these related images will be subsequently requested by the user. The invention also includes an embodiment which provides user requested still images "on demand" on a dedicated "search" channel.

Abstract: An n type impurity region (14) is provided below a gate electrode (13). By setting a gate length to be less than a depth of a channel region (14), a side surface of the channel region (4) and a side surface of the n type impurity region (14) adjacent to the channel region (4) form a substantially perpendicular junction surface. Thus, since a depletion layer widens uniformly in a depth direction of a substrate (1), it is possible to secure a predetermined breakdown voltage. Furthermore, since an interval between the channel regions (4), above which the gate electrode (13) is disposed, is uniform from its surface to its bottom, it is possible to increase an impurity concentration of the n type impurity region (14), resulting in an achievement of a low on-resistance.
